My Healing Games

Chapter 882 Han Fei's Ambition: Conquering the City
"Winter Dog, 34 years old, possesses a Loyal Personality that has awakened six times. He is a watchdog for the Calamity Investigation Bureau and was previously responsible for material security in the Transportation Squadron."

Han Fei put down the documents in his hand and looked at the man in front of him with a resolute face and a serious expression: "Loyalty? Can you tell me what your specific personality abilities are? Don't misunderstand, as the team leader, I have the right to know the true strength of each team member."

"Never betray, never abandon." Dongquan stood straight, his style completely different from the other group members.

"I quite like your personality, but I also hope you won't interfere too much in my affairs, after all, you can't beat me yet." Han Fei said bluntly. He walked past Dong Quan and sat down in the office chair.

After the expansion of Group Thirteen, the bureau assigned Han Fei an office. Group Thirteen, which was originally just a temporary proposal by Li Xue, has now become the strongest combat team in the investigation squadron.

"Doesn't the Investigation Bureau trust you a lot? Why did they send a supervisor?" The chains clanged, the metal tattoo on Yan Lan's back merging with her flesh. She simply stretched her limbs, yet it made all the other team members tense. To be honest, Yan Lan was a very charming woman, but her beauty couldn't be described as delicate; it was a wild and domineering beauty that could even make people unconsciously submit.

"My stance is completely aligned with the Investigation Bureau's; it's just that I tend to be a bit extreme in my actions." Han Fei hadn't expected Yan Lan to choose to join Group Thirteen. It seemed she had discovered some secrets from the principal's black box and needed a suitable reason to freely enter and leave the Investigation Bureau.

"The investigators from the Investigation Bureau who were in charge of the aftermath have returned. They said that all the residents of Longevity Village perished." Director Ya put on a pair of glasses; his personality ability required his eyes to activate, and to avoid unnecessary trouble, he simply covered his vision. "I sent you to investigate the survivors, and you just freed them all? Is this your method of investigation?"

“Everyone in that survivor's stronghold was consumed by hatred, and there was nothing I could do about it.” Han Fei spread his hands, realizing that his team members all had strange tempers and dared to talk back to him with a straight face.

“I can vouch for what he said.” A-Nian stood firmly on Han Fei’s side: “Once a person has an obsession with life, they will constantly sell their soul and have all their value squeezed out under the threat of death.”

"Alright, now that you all know each other, we'll all work together from now on." Han Fei threw his outstanding contribution points bill on the table and then spread out a city map: "With our combined abilities, breaking into an ordinary Black Building is no problem. I've already taken on all the Black Building-related missions within the Investigation Bureau."

Winter Dog: "..."

Director Crow: "..."

A-Nian: "What is the Black Building?"

“A building consumed by hatred is called a Black Building.” Han Fei patiently explained to A Nian, after all, A Nian was the only member of the group who supported him: “Not all Black Buildings are as terrifying as the Third Mental Hospital. Hatred also varies in strength. Some hatred doesn’t even ignite a black fire, so we don’t need to be afraid at all.”

"Team Leader Gao, do you know what you're saying?" Dong Quan couldn't hold back any longer. His duty here was to keep an eye on Han Fei and prevent him from doing anything too dangerous, because the information in Anian's memories was too important to the Investigation Bureau.

"Do you all think I've gone mad?" Han Fei's face revealed a cruel smile. Behind him, black mist surged, and a gash appeared in the pitch-black abyss of greed. "For the greedy personality to awaken, it must constantly devour ghosts and monsters, amplifying its greed! Every time I breach a black building, I can devour a piece of hatred, and there's a certain probability that I'll trap it in the abyss of greed, making it a part of me. Before, I wasn't strong enough and could only let hatred bully me, but now it's different. I will make those ghosts who spread fear feel terror."

Han Fei's voice echoed in the office. The team members didn't think Han Fei was crazy; they just thought the world had gone mad.

“If I hadn’t just met the other members of the Investigation Bureau, judging solely from your performance, I would have thought the Investigation Bureau was an evil organization that wanted to destroy the world.” Ah Nian joked, admiring Han Fei’s decisiveness: “No wonder you were able to save me from the noses of three people filled with hatred.”

"Are you serious?" Dongquan's eyelids twitched. He realized that Yan Lan and Director Ya had both accepted Han Fei's idea: "You have no objections either? Just the few of us going to the Black Tower to hunt for hatred?"

“He’s done things even crazier than this.” Yan Lan pointed to the abyss of greed behind Han Fei: “I advise you to be sensible. The last leader who tried to stop him is still lying in his abyss.”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not that cruel." Han Fei waved his hands repeatedly: "The principal turned into a half-human, half-ghost monster, so I swallowed him."

"So you're admitting it outright?" Dongquan frowned. He was a man of principle and wouldn't waver easily.

Han Fei smiled politely, then smoothly changed the subject, circling a black building at the intersection of Zone C and Zone B on the map: "Wanjia Shopping Mall. This black building has a large amount of supplies stored inside, and there are traces of survivor activity nearby. The Investigation Bureau has been unable to conduct an in-depth investigation of it because it is too far away. This is our target this time."

Han Fei wasn't discussing this with everyone; he was informing the group members present: "You have twenty minutes to prepare. Bring your equipment and meet downstairs."

Han Fei stuffed several bottles of ghost blood into his backpack, put away the map, and walked out of the office.

The other team members in the room looked at each other in bewilderment. Han Fei had just escaped from the haunted building that morning, and his injuries hadn't even fully healed yet, and he was already going to hunt in the Black Building again. He really loved this "job" too much.

"You have eighteen minutes left!"

Not long after, the roar of engines filled the investigation bureau as Han Fei drove several new team members away from the safe zone.

They headed straight for the Black Building. Winter Dog's Black Ring also received a message from the higher-ups of the Investigation Bureau. They sent him to persuade Han Fei not to act impulsively, but with more "combat power," Han Fei became even more reckless.

While Dongquan was talking with the leaders of the Investigation Bureau, Yan Lan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, handed a list to Han Fei: "The night before last, Director Ya and I opened the principal's black box. I didn't expect that he also had connections with Hope New City."

"I know that some people in Hope New City are making deals with ghosts."

“Things are more serious than you think. Hatred has infiltrated the New City’s management. They plan to build Hope New City into a super-large altar and use all the city’s survivors as a blood sacrifice to the gods.” Yan Lan’s eyes were solemn. “The blood sacrifice ritual requires a lot of items. These people who have been bewitched by ghosts have been secretly helping to collect them. A large part of them are stockpiled in the Black Building. On the day of the gods’ birthday, they will transport everything to New City.”

"The blood sacrifice is to be held on the god's birthday?" Han Fei's pupils twitched slightly. He didn't have much time left. The main body of the happy being was very likely to return on its birthday. Don't be fooled by his rapidly increasing strength; there was still a huge gap between him and the unspeakable.

“The birthday celebration may last for a long time, and the higher-ups at the Investigation Bureau should be aware of this.” Yan Lan lowered her voice: “However, what I find strange is that the Investigation Bureau doesn’t seem to have any intention of stopping it.”

"Maybe we just didn't see it." Han Fei knew that Li Xue and some members of the Investigation Bureau had gone to Hope New City. The Investigation Bureau's attack on the Black Building after Li Xue left seemed to be an attempt to cover up its internal weakness.

"The great disaster is not over yet, and people still have to fight each other. It's truly pathetic." Ah Nian heard Yan Lan and Han Fei's conversation, shook his head, and looked out the car window alone.

The modified vehicle of Investigation Team Thirteen drove to the edge of Area C. They had left the Bureau of Investigation's controlled area and ventured deep into the territory of the monsters.

“Some special grudges are worth devouring, and the Red Building near Wanjia Supermarket is no exception. Since we're already here, we might as well eat it on the way.” Han Fei was looking for a parking spot. Even if he was arrogant, he wouldn't park his car directly in front of the Black Building.

The other crew members in the vehicle were all on high alert. They were very experienced in combat and didn't need Han Fei to remind them.

As Han Fei drove past an intersection and was about to stop, a hissing sound of electricity suddenly came from the black ring, indicating the presence of multiple sources of signal interference nearby.

"We didn't enter the Ghost Realm; it's the living causing trouble!"

The road trembled as a black heavy truck drove from the direction of Wanjia Supermarket and blocked Han Fei's path.

"Why are they here, with the Hope City Guard's insignia?" Winter Dog wondered. Normally, if a large survivor stronghold were to attack the Black Building, they would mobilize in advance and publicize it extensively. After all, every "war" is an advertisement to win over the people, and they would never sneak in like this.

The people in the heavy truck were also unsure why Han Fei and his group had arrived, and the two sides were locked in a stalemate on the road.

Ten minutes later, another modified car from Hope New City stopped behind Han Fei, and they sandwiched Han Fei's car, blocking it in the middle of the road.

Thinking he had the situation under control, the truck door was opened, and a one-eyed man wearing an eye patch stepped out. His uniform still had fresh bloodstains on it—the blood of a living person.

"Your investigation bureau is really bold. An investigation team dares to go deep into the city to investigate on its own. Aren't you afraid of encountering hatred and dying a gruesome death?" One-Eyed Dragon threw off his gloves. His words were loaded with meaning, as if he were telling Han Fei's story.

"Get out of the car. We won't make things difficult for you. We're all here to exorcise ghosts. Even though we're from different strongholds, our beliefs are the same." A man also stepped out of the modified car that had cut off Han Fei's escape route. He had pale skin and looked somewhat effeminate. His clothes had a scale pattern drawn on them. This man seemed to be a member of the Arbitration Committee of the Inner City of Hope New City.

People from Hope New City gradually got off the bus, and they were all covered in blood. The smell of blood could be smelled from a distance, indicating that they had just slaughtered some of their kind.

“We were quite lucky. We happened to catch these guys out on an outing, which saved us the trouble of going to Hope City to find them ourselves.” Han Fei looked at the people from Hope City, his gaze sweeping across their faces as he compared them to the murderers in the Ghost Card case from his memory, and he quickly made a discovery.

Both the one-eyed man and the young members of the arbitration panel are marked on the Joker card as serial killers. The one-eyed man, nicknamed Red Eyes, was a former gang member. He was ruthless and vicious, and after being wanted, he killed several people before disappearing in the mountains. The effeminate-looking young man was born into a family of lawyers and called himself Lawyer Hua. His family was powerful and influential, and his parents were very strict with him from a young age. On the surface, he was a good child who obeyed his elders, but in private, he was violent, cruel, and enjoyed torture. Later, he became a pawn in the hands of a criminal organization.

Attorney Hua is not ranked high in the Jokers case, but the other criminal who led him astray is the most troublesome figure in the Jokers case. That person claims to be a judge, arbitrarily arbitrating the life and death of innocent people, and is an extremely dangerous madman.

"We received a distress message, which is why we rushed here immediately." Han Fei displayed his masterful acting skills, and as the team leader, he managed to portray the feeling of someone who was naive, innocent, and honest.

"Thank you for your kindness, but the danger has passed." One-Eyed Dragon exchanged glances with the others, their faces revealing murderous intent. "Which investigation team are you from? I see there aren't many of you. Be careful, this place is very close to the Black Building!"

"We are a hastily assembled investigation team, with only five people on our hands." Han Fei seemed to only now "realize" the "danger," and he immediately turned around to leave.

"Don't rush off!" The one-eyed man's eyes gleamed with a thirst for blood. "We're still short of the sacrifices we need, and you individuals with special personalities are just what we need to help us complete our mission!"

The blindfold fell off, and a pitch-black ghost hand emerged from the one-eyed dragon's blind eye. It tried to grab Han Fei's neck, but when it got close to Han Fei, it was suddenly cut off by something and fell to the ground.

Holding the Rebirth Slaughtering Knife, Han Fei looked at the one-eyed dragon with a face full of surprise: "What a coincidence, I've also been collecting offerings recently."

The clanging of chains rang out as the tall Yan Lan stepped out of the car. The metal tattoo on her back pierced her spine, and her fearless personality, awakened six times, made her seem like a god on the battlefield: "Should we leave any survivors?"

"Whether they stay or leave is irrelevant; I've already seen their memories." Ah Nian sat in the car, resting his chin on his hand. The memories of those he was targeting were beginning to become disordered, and their minds were constantly collapsing.

Having awakened his personality seven times, he was qualified to become the deputy captain of any of the major squadrons in the Investigation Bureau. He was the strongest person in the entire squadron, but in the Thirteenth Group, he was only a deputy group leader.

"Don't even think about running away." Director Crow took off his glasses and walked towards the bastards with a sigh: "I'm afraid of all the monsters in the group. Why don't you just commit suicide?"

The car door opened, and Dongquan followed Director Ya out of the car silently, even more so than before.
